Tonight
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Every night
I'll never put the lights out
Cause someone else
Will drive around
Cause I'm coming 'round
Boys, boys, everywhere
But not a drop to drink
I want to find a good one
Who still knows how to think
And it's everything and nothing
That I thought it would be
And it's nothing and everything
That I thought it would be
I need desire, to feel alive
I want a fire
To burn me up inside
So I'm calling angels
Help me to tonight
(help me tonight)
Tonight
Every night
I'll never put the lights out
Everyone's talking
But no one's listening
Pretty faces, fancy places
Nothing keeps you high
Everybody's wasted
Won't look you in the eye
And it's everything and nothing
That I thought it would be
And it's nothing and it's everything
That I thought it would be
I need desire, to feel alive
I want a fire
To burn me up inside
So I'm calling angels
Help me to tonight
(help me tonight)
Tonight
Every night
I'll never put the lights out
Do you go look for love
Or does love come look for you?
I take my head, I put on make-up
In case he comes around
Without warning, when I wake up
Will I turn it down
I need desire, to feel alive
I want a fire
To burn me up inside
Rearrange the heavens
Is making me this right
So I'm calling angels
To help me to tonight
(help me tonight)
Tonight
Every night
I'll never put the lights out
